Presumed Dead is the second book in Barbara Derksen's
Wilton/Strait Murder Mystery Series. Since I downloaded this book in to my
Kindle, the synopsis is from Amazon :
"Andrea Wilton and Brian Strait, from Shuster Detective Agency, take on
another case to find a missing person. This second book in the series introduces
DJ Wiebe, a biker who rides with The Sons Riders, a Christian biker ministry.
Another biker, a member of The Demons Raiders, is missing and presumed dead. DJ,
his friend, hires Shuster Detective Agency to find him. He initiates Andrea and
Brian into the biker culture, a world that encompasses motorcycles, leather,
drugs and murder."
I have now read all four books in the Wilton/Strait Murder Mysery Series,
and I have to say that Presumed Dead is the best of the four
books. The book is a rollercoaster ride that you can't put down. The pace is
rather quick, which was good, as I figured out what was going on about half way
through the book. That's all I'll say, because I won't give anything away. The
banter between the two main characters, Andrea and Brian, is amusing and
enjoyable. They sound like a friend and I do when we get together.
This is Christian Fiction, so expect Bible passages, Jesus, and Prayer.
It's not 'preachy' but the series seems to be headed that way. It's a fine line
and probably an easy one to cross.
You do not have to read the first book in the series, Vanished, to
understand or enjoy Presumed Dead. Presumed
Dead does have references to the storyline in Vanished, but enough
explaination is given that you'll know what happened.
I would give this book 5 stars, as I enjoyed it (and there were none of the
little things that bugged me from the first book).
I was given a free ecopy of Presumed Dead to read and review by Christian
Women's Affiliates. The views and opinions are all my own.
